Re: Cablevision said by A non :The reason Cablevision exceeds their advertised speed is because they set the modem's cap at 147% of the advertised. The theory is that some people will get well above advertised speed and balance out the people who are far below advertised. This makes the average look good, but does little to help the people who are well below advertised.
I'm more annoyed at my upload, which is at only 77% of the modem's cap. Cablevision should be able to do better.
I'm seeing more like 119% or 59 megabits... not 73, and not 64... maybe this is happening on more of the 15 megabit tier as they either split nodes, or let these lower tier customers have docsis 3 modems. Always said Cv can do alot better on the upstream.. at least be reasonable ratios 3:1 4:1 |

After calling to complain, they sent a couple techs out to test my speed, and the finally gave me a Docsis 3 modem. Now I usually get slightly above the advertised speed. |
